$30,000 per day?? Where do they get the money?


According to IMDB trivia section, the 747-123 from Americans Airlines was rented at $30,000 a day, where do they get that kind of money?

reply

They only used it for two days for exterior shots. So that's $60,000 out of a $3 million budget. You didn't think they actually shot the interior in a real plane, did you ?

The interior shot was quite convincing looks almost like the real thing but having been in Boeing 747s, it appears to be quite compact compared to the one in Airport 75.
